The Value of Critique Groups for Artists with Patricia Miranda (#61)

Just a mention of the word critique can bring back painful memories
for some artists. Or downright fear from those who have never
participated in a professional critique.

Artists who have been part of formal and ongoing critique groups
find them invaluable to their creative development.


In the latest episode of the podcast, I talk with Patricia
Miranda, founder of The Crit Lab. She's been leading 7 separate
critique groups in 3 states and has recently taken them online.


We discussed:




Why artists need critical feedback and at one point they
should ask for it.




The format of a day-long critique session.




Patricia's contention that art is a verb, not an object.




Artists would benefit from thinking about engagement more
than intent.




This is a deep and philosophical discussion that is different
from my other episodes. I encourage you to listen more than once.
